I disagree - it'll be wrapped and worth a few pounds. Why upgrade it if the bidding increases? That would simply reduce profit for no reason.
The auction is genuine - by that i mean they're being up front by saying it's a wrapped gift. The fact that some mugs are prepared to pay almost £70 so far for what could be a pair of slippers and an alarm clock (for example) shows how easy it is to make money.
Why increase the value of the box and reduce the profit when the bidding will increase regardless of the contents???

Ooh, I foresee some big fat negs for the sellers

Could be one very large mug!! I think that's what I'd wrap and send if I was this sort of seller!

Or a lump of coal and a note saying 'Sorry you were naughty this year. Love Santa.'

I've asked the seller to list some of this character's previous gifts to her unfortunate friend! Should be a laff to see what she comes up with!! All will be in the best possible taste I am sure!!!!!!!!

for her birthday in august she got from what i can remember any way where: jeans from river island and vest top, slippers big boot ones from next. perfume and a box full mac make up which his sister in law chose! i also know that for their anniversary of being a couple for so long he got her flower from next delivered to work and a D&G watch stunning it is to! and she got him a night away so there very good present wise to each other !

Take with a pinch of salt. You'll be getting 'George' jeans plus a Timex digital watch

Well according to the feedback, this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120202876370
was an Apple i-phone, and "wow, he just couldn't believe it" (strange, cos neither can I - am I just the cynical type?)

I've been watching this one just to see what happens with the feedback - can't believe so many people can be so deluded

Another one by a differently named seller, though the wording is almost identical

that other one you quoted has been removed, not sure what went on there then?

So it has

It had over 30 bids on I think and had gone up to around £70 - makes you wonder why/if it's been pulled.

It might actually be true because if you look at the pressies she has listed now she has gone opened them all, probably to check there isnt a Gucci watch in there.:D
